[00:00:57] of [00:01:04] of new global power [00:01:07] dynamic is taking shape as leaders [00:01:10] of the expanded bricks grouping gather in New Delhi, the world's [00:01:13] emerging economies are pushing for a greater voice in global [00:01:17] affairs, hosted by India under the theme building for [00:01:21] of resilience, innovation, cooperation and sustainability, the [00:01:25] 2026 brick summit brings together 11 member states [00:01:28] including Indonesia. from economic cooperation and global [00:01:32] governance to artificial intelligence, energy and [00:01:36] sustainable development, the t-day summit seeks to strengthen [00:01:39] cooperation among the global south, but with a larger [00:01:43] and more diverse membership, bricks also faces key [00:01:47] challenge. Here's the full [00:01:50] of report. New Delhi became the [00:01:54] center of global south diplomacy as leaders [00:01:57] of the bricks countries gathered for [00:01:59] the 8. brick summit on September 12th and [00:02:03] 13th. hosted by India under the theme [00:02:07] Building for resilience, innovation, cooperation and [00:02:10] sustainability. The summit came a time of growing [00:02:14] geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, economic [00:02:18] uncertainty and pressure on global supply [00:02:20] chains. For two days, leaders discuss how [00:02:24] bricks can strengthen cooperation among emerging [00:02:27] economies while pushing for a great. greater role for the global south [00:02:31] in international decision making. the [00:02:35] 2026 summit was also significant because [00:02:38] bricks has now grown far beyond its original four member [00:02:42] of format. the group has 11 full members including [00:02:46] Indonesia which joined as a full member in January [00:02:50] 2025. [00:03:02] Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi opened the summit in New [00:03:05] Delhi, welcoming leaders and representatives from across [00:03:09] Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin [00:03:13] a America. Russian president Vladimir Putin, [00:03:17] Chinese President Shin Ping, Indonesian President [00:03:20] Prabo Subianto, South African President Siril [00:03:24] Ramafosa and other leaders took part in the [00:03:27] summit. The meeting was belt against a complex [00:03:31] international backdrop, ongoing conflicts, rising [00:03:35] trade tensions and disruptions to energy and supply [00:03:39] chains. they all have created new challenges for developing [00:03:42] economies. for India, the 2026 [00:03:46] bricks presidency was an [00:03:49] of opportunity to place resilience, innovation, cooperation and [00:03:52] sustainability at the center [00:03:54] of the group's agenda. the summit also [00:03:58] marked two decades. Since bricks began as brick, a grouping of [00:04:02] Brazil, Russia, India and China before South [00:04:06] Africa joined and the name became [00:04:08] breaks. [00:04:21] The expansion of bricks have changed the group's global [00:04:25] profile. [00:04:27] of Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and United Emirates became [00:04:31] full members in 2024, followed by Indonesia [00:04:35] in [00:04:37] a 2025. The 11 member group now represents nearly half [00:04:40] of the world's population and around 40% of global [00:04:44] GDP, according to data cited by Indian [00:04:47] sources, but a larger bricks also means a [00:04:51] more [00:04:52] of diverse one. Members have different economic structures, political [00:04:56] systems and foreign policy priorities that. makes [00:05:00] consensus more challenging, but also makes bricks a [00:05:04] broader platform for developing and emerging [00:05:07] economies. [00:05:18] One the central themes the summit was the future of [00:05:22] global governance. Brick's leaders called for a more [00:05:26] representative and fairer international order, [00:05:29] including reform of multilateral [00:05:31] institutions. The New Delhi [00:05:35] declaration reaffirmed the group's commitment to [00:05:38] multilateralism, sovereign equality, international [00:05:42] law. and greater representation for developing [00:05:45] countries. geopolitical conflicts also [00:05:48] loomed large. the declaration express concern [00:05:52] over escalating international tensions including the risk to [00:05:56] civilian infrastructure and nuclear safety during armed [00:06:00] conflicts. the members also sought to address the [00:06:04] impact of conflict and instability on global [00:06:07] trade, energy security and economic [00:06:10] development. [00:06:19] Economic cooperation remained a key priority: [00:06:23] bricks members discuss strengthening trade and investment, building a [00:06:27] more resilient supply chain and deepening financial [00:06:30] cooperation. The group also continues to explore ways [00:06:34] to facilitate trade using national currencies and to [00:06:37] strengthen financial cooperation among member [00:06:40] states. The broader objective is to make bricks [00:06:44] cooperation more practical and to create new [00:06:48] opportunities for business, investment and [00:06:51] development, but the agenda is no longer [00:06:55] limited to traditional economics. Technology and [00:06:58] artificial intelligence have become increasingly important [00:07:02] parts the bricks [00:07:03] discussion. [00:07:18] Under India's chairmanship, bricks also place strong [00:07:21] emphasis on innovation and sustainable [00:07:24] development. Leaders discuss cooperation in [00:07:28] areas including digital technology, artificial [00:07:31] intelligence, clean energy, food [00:07:35] security, agriculture and climate [00:07:37] action. The goal is to link economic growth [00:07:41] with greater. resilience, particularly for developing [00:07:45] countries that are vulnerable to climate change, energy [00:07:48] disruptions and global economic shocks. [00:07:52] People to people cooperation was also part the [00:07:55] agenda, including culture, education, [00:07:59] tourism, health and other areas of social [00:08:02] development. [00:08:15] For Indonesia, the New Delhi summit was an important moment [00:08:19] in its early years as a full bricks [00:08:21] member. Indonesia's membership provides [00:08:24] additional platform to engage with major emerging [00:08:28] economies from different regions. President [00:08:32] Prabo Subianto's participation also reflected [00:08:35] Indonesia's engagement with the broader global [00:08:38] south. Areas such as trade, investment, [00:08:42] Food security, energy, digital technology [00:08:46] and development offer potential avenues for [00:08:49] cooperation. At the same time, Indonesia, [00:08:53] like other bricks members, operates with its own national [00:08:57] interest and foreign policy priorities within the group's [00:09:00] consensus-based [00:09:01] framework. [00:09:17] After two days of discussions, bricks leaders adopted the [00:09:21] new delhi declaration by consensus. The document [00:09:25] reaffirmed three broad pillars of bricks [00:09:28] corporation, political and security [00:09:30] cooperation, economic and financial [00:09:34] cooperation, and cultural and people [00:09:37] to people cooperation. The [00:09:41] declaration also. emphasize sustainable development, [00:09:45] inclusive growth and the need for a more representative [00:09:48] multilateral system. for India, the [00:09:52] declaration was the main political outcome for its 2026 [00:09:56] chairmanship, but the next challenge is [00:09:59] implementation. the success of bricks will depend [00:10:03] not only on the number of declaration it adopts, but on [00:10:07] whether those commitments can be translated into concrete [00:10:11] corporation. [00:10:25] 18th brick summit came to an end, India's [00:10:28] 2026 chairmanship also due to [00:10:31] close. the group now moves into its next phase with [00:10:34] China set to take over the bricks chairmanship in [00:10:37] 2027. from its origins as a four country [00:10:41] economic grouping, bricks has developed into a much broader [00:10:45] platform connecting countries across four [00:10:48] continents. its expansion has given the group [00:10:52] greater reach but also greater. [00:10:56] The New Delhi summit showed that, despite differences among [00:10:59] members, they can still find common ground issues such as [00:11:03] development, economic cooperation, technology, [00:11:07] sustainability and global [00:11:09] governance. [00:11:16] So that's our recap for the break summit in New Delhi, when we return [00:11:20] after the break, we will give you the latest update the tension between US and Iran [00:11:24] in the... of hormos, we'll be right [00:11:26] back.

[00:12:26] Now shipping tensions around the straight of hormos are [00:12:30] escalating as diplomatic efforts to keep the vital waterway [00:12:33] open face new setbacks. disruptions are also raising [00:12:37] global concerns over energy supplies, shipping security [00:12:41] and the impact on food production and prices. Here's the full [00:12:45] report. [00:12:49] Iran and Oman have been working a temporary shipping corridor [00:12:53] through the straight of Hormus. including a joint plan to remove mines [00:12:57] from the waterway. talks planned in oman salalah were [00:13:01] expected to bring together eight countries, but Bahrain said it [00:13:05] would not attend, siting its lack of diplomatic relations with [00:13:09] Iran. Iran has warned that an agreement on the safe [00:13:13] corridor does not mean straight is fully safe for commercial [00:13:17] shipping. the arrangement comes amit ongoing disputes [00:13:21] between Tehran and Washington over navigation and security in [00:13:25] street. [00:13:34] Iran says Saudi Arabia requested the postponement a meeting [00:13:38] on maritime navigation that was planned in Oman, while [00:13:42] Riyad had not commented at the time of publication. [00:13:46] Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Ismail Baque also [00:13:49] denied that Tairan was involved in recent development between Saudi [00:13:53] Arabia and Yemen.

Doha says freedom of [00:14:28] navigation is a trop priority that a prolong closure will have [00:14:32] a global consequences for shipping, trade and energy [00:14:35] supply. Qatari official said diplomatic [00:14:39] efforts with regional and international partners are continuing to [00:14:43] find a peaceful solution.

The competing accounts come as the commercial [00:15:33] shipping through the straight remains disrupted. [00:15:46] the UN food and agriculture organization warns that disruptions [00:15:50] to shipping through the straight of hormos could reduce global food [00:15:54] production and supplies in the second half of 2026 and [00:15:58] into 2027. the straight is key route not [00:16:02] only for oil and gas but also a urea and other [00:16:05] fertilizers needed by far. around the world, [00:16:09] fao official said even short [00:16:13] delays in fertilizer deliveries could cause farmers [00:16:17] to miss critical application windows and lower crop [00:16:20] yields. the disruptions could also push up food [00:16:24] prices and version hunger in areas already facing food [00:16:28] crisis.
